• Windows 8 Pro product key does not work

  I get this error message: "this product key has not worked. Please check it and try again"

  
  
  Just bought the Windows 8 Pro in Windows 7 home premium upgrade.  Fresh installed from a USB...

  Got mine sorted... I called customer service... you guys can check it out here for your countries respective http://support.microsoft.com/gp/customer-service-phone-numbers

  So yes... to explain the situation, they will provide you with this diagnostic package... click on the package, reset your comp... and you should be able to activate your shiny new operating system... they were quick to fix my problem... Bravo to them... hope it helps = D

  Method for those who don't want phone customer service:
  Your key is a unique key for update... meaning that it will not allow a new installation... unless you do the workaround of Windows 7 registry.

  You must open a run dialog box and type: "Regedit".

  Then I located this key:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Setup/OOBE /.

  And find one called "MediaBootInstall.

  Double-click that and change a 1 to 0.

  Then open cmd as administrator

  Type the command "slmgr /rearm.

  You will get a restart of your computer messge.

  Restart

  Then when you restart your computer, you open a dialog box run again and type "slui.exe 3" and it will allow you to enter your product key and activate :)

• Can I use a number of product key finder instead of the number on the sticker to reinstall windows vista Home premium?

  The sticker on the bottom of the laptop is half faded way so I don't have the original full product key number, the one I have from a product keys finder is different of course it will still work when you perform a full system restore?

  If your Vista is pre-installed when you purchased your computer, you have an OEM version. The only correct product key for your computer is attached to your computer.

  The game of product key that you got through the software 'key finder' will NOT work for you.

  Contact the manufacturer of your computer. Ask what follows...

  1. a set of recovery disks. The cost is minimal, and the money will be well spent. You can use the set to restore your computer to factory State.

  2. ask to talk to a technician. Ask technology to teach you how to access your recovery Partition and use it to make the recovery of the system. They installed the recovery partition, not Microsoft. They know exactly how to use it.

  The advice above do not require using the product key.

• Windows XP Pro product key

  I got a laptop for my father and I try to reformat & get going for him. I got an operating system disk Windows XP Pro to the place of the local computer. I am trying to install & using the product key on the bottom of the laptop tells me that the CD key is not valid. The Lady instead of the computer told me that the product key on the bottom of the laptop is what I needed. As I walked she told me that they reformat for $80. So if the product key at the bottom of my laptop does not work, how they will reformat? Something smells like fish on this subject. My question is how can I get a valid product key code?

  This is a question for the people who sold you the XP disc.  Microsoft sells more than XP, and as much as I know they will probably not help with activation.  You might have a chance with the manufacturer of the laptop; they might be able to give (sell) you the installation media that work with the product key on the computer.

• How can I change my XP Pro product key?

  My laptop was repaired some time ago after it crashed, when I ran the check Microsoft to check my license agreement, he could not tell my version of XP Pro was not genuine (he says it's a corporate copy not a single copy for use domestic). I checked the product key with the label on the bottom of my laptop and its different? Then... How can I put my real code 25-digit in back... bearing in mind I don't know anything about computors configuration!
  Thanks for any help

• Blocked for Windows 8 Pro product key

  So, I bought a copy of Windows 8 Pro on Ebay a little more than a month.  I was able to install AND activate Windows 8 Pro with success at the time (1 month ago).  It was a clean install on a new hard drive.

  However, I decided recently (a week) to upgrade a bunch of material (card video, monitors, power supply and also temporarily hard drive)... and in doing so, I did a fresh reinstall of Windows 8 (on a HDD test,) then hard disk that I had installed Windows 8 on a previous month.  Both of these fresh relocations a week ago, I was unable to activate Windows 8.  My product code is blocked.

  Am I blocked because of my hardware changes?  Or am I blocked because I bought a bad Windows 8 (e.g. maybe I bought a MSDN code)?  Here is the result of Licensingdiag.exe.

  Thank you very much in advance!

• Can I use my Vista 32 bit key for activate Vista 64-bit?

  I want to upgrade my Vista 32 bit OS to 64-bit. My computer came with Vista Home Premium 32 bit pre-installed but I want to run a 64-bit OS so I can enjoy the benefits as the increase in the capacity of RAM. If I can get a copy of a disk of Vista Home Premium 64 bit and I want to know if I can use my OEM key for activate Vista 64-bit, if I had to do a full clean install?

  Hello

  Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
  Yes, you can use the same key, but make sure that the installation is performed only once and a 32-bit parallel installation with the same key on other computer should not exist.
  You must perform a clean installation only and upgrade/downgrade cross-architecture (32-bit to 64-bit or vice versa) is not supported.

• Where can I download Windows 7 Pro ISO? I have the product key

  Where can I download Windows 7 Pro ISO? I have the product key

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

  Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

  What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

• My sisters thinkpad XP pro is unstable and it has lost its drive. I can reinstall using my xp pro disk and its product key?

  My sisters thinkpad XP pro is unstable and it has lost its drive.  I can reinstall using my xp pro disk and its product key?

  I fixed it!

  I couldn't work at all Internet Explore.  I finally installed Superantispyware from a USB pendrive and it ran in safe mode without network.  So I ran Malwarebytes and ccleaner.  After a reboot, everything works great again.  I could install Microsoft Security Essentials and get current updates.  After a smart defrag it turns really well now.

  I was able to make a recovery cd set too.  It will be just as good as if I he burned them on a new computer?  I mean can the data used to make these CDs get corrupted over time?  This laptop is 6 years old.

  Thank you for your willingness to help.
